 Two useful indexes to genealogical information in published Ontario sources are:
-*Elliot, Noel Montgomery. ''People of Ontario 1600-1900: Alphabetical Directory of the People, Places and Vital Dates''. Three Volumes. London, Ontario: Genealogical Research Library, 1984. (Family History Library [http://www.familysearch.org/eng/library/fhlcatalog/supermainframeset.asp?display=titledetails&titleno=640279&disp=People+of+Ontario%2C+1600%2D1900%20%20&columns=*,0,0 book 971.3 D22p 1989].) This master index lists over 250,000 people alphabetically by surname from more than 400 townships. Citations include: surname, given names, type of event (birth, marriage, death, etc.), year, sometimes an abbreviated place name, and always a source code (often including a page number). The appendix at the end of each volume provides bibliographic information about most, but not all, of the 153 sources. Many of the sources appear to be the series of illustrated historical atlases of the counties of southern Ontario published between 1876-81. See the "[[Ontario Maps|Maps]]" section of this outline. Other sources include directories, census extracts, collected biographies, and local histories. Looking up the source may provide further information about the date, event, or residence. Many of these and some additional sources are indexed in the very similar:
